Iqaluit … June First | Sybaritica

For most of Canada, June 1st pretty much is the start of summer…

The above picture is taken from the hill behind my house that overlooks Frobisher Bay. The ice on the bay doesn’t usually break up until July but, usually, the snow has pretty much gone by now. This year it seems to be hanging around quite obstinately. Some will always be visible in the hills in the distance, but I’d say we still have a good few weeks before the ‘town snow’ has completely disappeared. Naturally, the weather forecast for tomorrow is calling for 5 cm of snow to fall 🙁
